Answer:

$1032.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

salary = $950 every two weeks

tax rate = 8%

let the initial pay be x

and let the pay after tax deduction be p

p= x-8/100x

Hence the equation for his pay is

p=x-0.08x-------------1

subsitute

950=x-0.08x

950= 0.92x

divide both sides by 0.92

x= 950/0.92

x=$1032.60

The employee make $1032.60 every two weeks before taxes
